Product Spotlight: Cimexa Insecticide Dust


            Over the past few years, the Bedbug population in America has skyrocketed. Whether you travel often or not, you have no doubt heard or experienced horror stories of someone taking a trip and at some point picking up the insect and unfortunately brought it home and spent hundreds if not thousands of dollars to get rid of them. This insect is like an epidemic. This blood sucking bug has become a focal point in many local media channels and as the buzz has spread throughout the country, so has the desire to develop methods to eliminate them. Pesticide manufacturers are developing and introducing the new products almost weekly it seems like. While there has not been any end all be all product just yet, companies like Rockwell Labs have really made some strides and turned some heads with the products they are developing.
            One of the newest products from Rockwell is Cimexa Insecticide Dust. Designed with Bed Bugs in mind, this product is also labeled for fleas, ticks, lice, cockroaches, ants, termites, spiders and much more. The ingredient in the dust is Amorphous Silica Gel which essentially is a dessicant similar to diatomaceous earth. This is not a normal ingredient in pesticides and is much safer for humans than your typical insecticide dusts. According to Rockwell Labs, the silica rapidly absorbs moisture and destroys the waxy cuticle of insects causing rapid dehydration and death.
            Apart from the unique killing action and low toxicity to humans, Cimexa Insecticide Dust also offers many unique options that other dusts simply cannot. First, not only can this product be used as a typical dust, it can be used as a spray application once mixed with water. Once sprayed on, the water evaporates leaving the silica viable once again. Because of this option and the relative safety of the product, Rockwell labs has been able to get a broad label for this product that allows it to be used in almost any areas including the more sensitive application sites such as daycares, health care facilities and food handling and processing establishments. Rockwell recommends applying this product at a rate of two ounces per 100 sq. ft. using a hand or power duster. When mixed with water, they recommend one pound for every gallon of water. When it comes to its main targeted pest, bed bugs, Cimexa Dust has a broad label that allows you to apply it in almost any area including mattresses and box springs. The additional areas are other pieces of furniture, wall voids, cracks and crevices, etc.  

            Rockwell Labs truly has delivered a great product in Cimexa Insecticide Dust. There truly is not another dust out there that allows you to treat for not only bed bugs, but drywood termites as well. Innovation like this should help you believe that this company develops and delivers some of the best and most unique products in the industry.
